Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Ronand suddenly made a bitter face and said dissatisfied:

"Is this too advantageous for you, just licensing and taking away close to 15% of the profit..."

Kevin said forcefully:

"That's because you don't understand what magnificent achievements Pirates of the Caribbean will leave in the history of cinema, and its influence will last for ten, twenty, thirty years..."

"Even longer."

"I have set countless settings for it, and countless adventures in Captain Cliff Sparrow's life will be born in my hands."

"I swear by Steve Kevin!"

"It's bound to become a classic!"

Kevin stared confidently at Ronand in front of him.

Listening to Kevin's words, Ronand suddenly hesitated.

If Pirates of the Caribbean can achieve this kind of achievement, then their tourism bureau will still make a lot of money.

But there are undoubtedly significant risks.

Unless...

Ronand thought about it for a moment before saying

, "Pirates of the Caribbean grossed more than $100 million in the United States, and it must shoot more than five sequels in fifteen years before you can get this revenue, and this condition will be written into the contract."

Saying that, Ronand forced to look at Kevin, trying to see the weakness in his eyes.

Such a large investment, if it fails, he, the head of the tourism bureau, will also be under great pressure, he needs to get confidence from Kevin, or lose confidence.

So he made up his mind to invest, but also vetoed the plan.

However, Kevin's eyes were full of confidence, as if this plan could not fail at all.

After staring for a minute, Ronand finally made up his mind.

He could see the confidence in Kevin's eyes, and since that was the case, he believed him once.

.....

The specific details negotiations took another hour, and naturally experts and legal professionals would be invited to professionally evaluate these things.

In this regard, Kevin didn't care about it, and handed it all over to the assistant to run.

After the approximate task was completed, Kevin successively ran to the special effects company and prop company to arrange the relevant content of the movie one by one.

After all the pre-filming preparations were completed, the time had come three weeks later.

....

In the Caribbean Sea, behind a huge large ship, holding a wooden sailing ship, if posterity sees it, they can immediately react, this is the Black Pearl.

On the Black Pearl, Kevin sat behind the camera, watching the actors perform the scenes in the script one by one.

The filming of the film is different from the time of screening.

It never means that according to the plot, you first, you shoot first.

Instead, it is arranged according to the actual situation of the plot and the preparations.

The seaside town that appeared at the beginning of the plot, because it had just begun to be built, the scene naturally had to be filmed at the end.

In the same way, the last scene in the movie where Barbosa hides his treasure can also be filmed after Warner is finished.

Therefore, what Kevin chose to shoot here is actually part of the scenes at sea, of course, the actual shooting is only part of the scenes, and some of them have to be filmed in the studio.

At the same time, even these live-shot scenes must also be processed in the later stages before they can be officially completed.

As for this Black Pearl, it was made in a hurry and completely dependent on the consignment of large ships to be able to sail on the sea.

Compared to building the real Black Pearl, this method can undoubtedly save a lot of money.

In this process, the scenes of Pirates of the Caribbean are constantly filmed.

....

Fast forward to mid-February 1994, Pirates of the Caribbean has been filming in the Caribbean for nearly half a month, and finally all the scenes here have been filmed.

Looking at the tired crowd, Kevin raised the horn in his hand and said loudly:

"Everyone, starting today, we will go back to New York, rest for three days, and after three days, gather on the Warner set, and everyone will find Director Zach at that time."

"Oh clatter!"

"Director Kevin, you are the best!"

Dozens of people suddenly made a heaven-shaking sound, cheering for Kevin's words.

Although Kevin is indeed a tyrant on the set, when filming, reprimanding is a common thing, but he generally talks about things and does not make any personal attacks, just pointing out the mistakes of others.

Unless this mistake occurs repeatedly, Kevin will not go too far.

At the same time, in view of the sufficient funds, Kevin did not lose these actors and behind-the-scenes staff in terms of logistics, and everyone tasted a variety of seafood meals one by one, and the stay was quite good.

Coupled with the full salary, under this premise, Kevin still received praise from the staff.

In the midst of such laughter, the group embarked on the road back to New York.

And the biggest reason why Kevin is so rushed is actually that he received a message from Warner informing him, that is, his film Escape Desperate Town successfully won an Academy Award nomination for Best Film and a nomination for Best Screenplay.

While Kevin was busy with his own affairs, Warner Bros. did not stop, warming up for the Oscars during the Mission Impossible release.

Millions of public relations expenses were invested to give the DVDs of escaping from Desperate Town to the judges one by one, and at the same time, a batch of small gifts of great value were attached to the DVDs according to the judges' hobbies.

Sending money directly, of course, insults the sanctity of the Oscar award, which will make many judges refuse, and even have a rebellious mentality, so as to vote for other films.

But when you give a gift, it's different.

These are all unspoken rules that have gradually formed since the creation of the Oscars, as for the confidentiality principle of the Oscar judges?

In the eyes of a Warner-level film company, it is just a joke.

They know the addresses of 99 percent of the Oscar judges, as well as their real identities, which is the heritage of the big movie companies.

....

Back in New York, Kevin didn't even have time to go home, so he came to Warner Bros. first.

Robinoff greeted him with a smile on his face, looked around, and after making sure it was safe, he whispered:

"Kevin, escaping from Desperate Town is likely to win the Best Screenplay Award, congratulations!"

Kevin also smiled and said:

"Thanks to Warner Bros.'s subsequent PR, this award was obtained, but unfortunately it is not the Best Picture or Best Director award."

That being said, Kevin also knows that at a time when the Black Lives Matter movement is not developed enough, the anti-war art film that escapes Desperate Town to defeat Schindler's list, while awakening and reflecting the tragic experience of Jews, has no possibility in Hollywood, a circle controlled by Jewish capital.

The biggest winner of the 1994 Oscars was precisely the list of Schindlers of Spielberg, the target of Kevin's pursuit.

As for escaping from Desperate Town, under the power of Warner, he finally gnawed a small cake in the Oscar.
